A thought on why freedom of speech is not compatible with the historic political tactics and narratives of white supremacy.
In America, The privilege groups have unfortunately never known stability and security outside of the norm of white supremacy.
And quite frankly, they don't seem willing to recognize stability and security without the norm of white supremacy.
Because of the cognitive aspects of that dynamic... The idea that we should condone fascism under the umbrella of free speech is never going to work out for us.
The current excuses we are allowing the political right to use in the United States is borderline insane

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I’ve read your bio. It did not mention the emotions, especially the fear, you felt as you left religion.
Religion once promised me stability and security, and while leaving religion I felt a fear I had not felt earlier. As my confidence in my own abilities grew, I lost that fear.
The norm of white supremacy promises economic stability and security, and the loss of that economic stability and security increases fear.
America’s capitalism is more competitive than necessary. It breeds fear.
I do not support socialism. I do support employee ownership, a more cooperative form of capitalism.

I'm not sure you still support the current American approach to capitalism or economics anymore...
Any increase in employee economic stability combined with the transparency and accountability necessary for cooperative systems in capitalism... And most other American institutions... Would effectively amount to what the far right called socialism.
I do think that most Americans are not interested in socialism proper... They just want whatever is not what the Republicans have been oppressing the nation with over the last 60 years.
